Tori Amos Brings the “In Times of Dragons” Tour to San Diego Civic Theatre

There are artists who put on a show, and then there’s Tori Amos – a force of nature who turns every performance into something genuinely unforgettable.

Her “In Times of Dragons” tour is making a stop in San Diego, and this is one night we won’t want to miss.

Tori Amos San Diego

A Musical Icon With a Career Like no Other

With 16 studio albums, a classically trained piano foundation, and a voice that has moved audiences for decades, Tori Amos has earned her place as one of rock’s most distinctive and enduring artists.

She’s widely credited with bringing the piano back to the forefront of rock and roll – not just as an instrument, but as a centerpiece of bold, emotionally charged storytelling.

Her live performances have a reputation for being deeply intimate and completely absorbing, no matter the size of the venue.

An Iconic Venue for an Iconic Artist

San Diego Civic Theatre is one of downtown’s most beloved cultural landmarks, with 60 years of world-class musical theatre, dance, and opera under its belt. It’s the kind of room that feels right for a performance like this – grand enough to hold the occasion, intimate enough to feel like she’s playing just for us.

Located in the heart of downtown San Diego, it’s also the perfect excuse to make a full evening of it. Grab dinner nearby before the show and settle in for a night that’s as much an experience as it is a concert.

Tickets Are on Sale Now

Tickets are already available through a few different presale windows, with the general public onsale having gone live on January 23. Whether you’re a longtime fan or someone curious to see what all the fuss is about, this is a show worth locking in sooner rather than later.

See you there!

A Tori Amos show is something that tends to stay with you long after the last note – we’d love to see the San Diego community come out for this one.
